Ugh, I feel like this is all I do anymore...
Newcomers. Doubtless you've heard the basics of where you've found yourself already, from your so-called "family" or otherwise. Dist the Rose is here to give you a more in-depth explanation; that is, a letter that I myself have been so generous as to compose for you. I'm giving one out to anyone who asks, new or old; for those who have the old version, I've updated it to include the basic gist of what happened last month.
Simply come to either the library or my home, at 1767 Beaver Street. Any drone should be able to tell you where the library is; I'll be in and out of the shelves myself. Look for a slender man with pale hair and glasses.
[Action A]
[If you go to the library earlier in the day, you will indeed find Dist wandering in and out of the rows of books, alternately doing the shelving and sorting that the job requires and peeking through the books himself, pausing every so often to write down a title.]
[Action B]
[On into the afternoon and evening, he's in his driveway, detaching the gun from the Kaiser's belly; it's scorched all to hell and clearly no longer functional. He really has no clue how he's going to fix it without just building a new one from scratch, and without his lab that in itself will be difficult. Dammit, Mayfield.]
(ooc note: if you're not interested in cr with dist, there's no need to post in; you can give your character the letter without threading with me if you'd prefer. ^^ it's out there for you guys; just assume dist gave it to you without incident[shockingly]. a bit of retroactive interaction is fine too, if this shows up before you officially intro; just don't, like... dig it up a week from now if your character wasn't here.)

I wish to make a proposal to you concerning our genius.
B
Date: 2011-04-10 12:39 am (UTC)Yes, I have time, and I'm always interested in ways to better utilize my intellect.

Date: 2011-04-09 10:08 pm (UTC)U-um, Dist? I know you already gave me a c-copy, but I was w-wondering if you'd added anything a-and, um, if you have, if I could, um. S-scan it into my computablet?
[Which he just got back in the mail, donchaknow!]
J-just to, um. Have it somewhere safe.
Re: A
Date: 2011-04-10 10:48 pm (UTC)No?
Okay, then.
Dist grins a bit and pulls out one of the letters.]
It has been updated, yes, and I have more copies than I know what to do with, so I imagine it's safe enough. If you want to make a digital copy, though, I don't suppose I'll stop you.
[Yep, they have both computers and carrier pigeons back home. Auldrant tech is weird.]

Date: 2011-04-10 12:12 am (UTC)Oops.
So... yeah, library, in the hopes that maybe he could find something in the history section there, with any luck.
... Wow, this section was... not helpful. History? Hiiiistory? ... Any good history? It was with a touch of relief that he found someone there without a vapid smile or a blank look in their eye, turning a corner to see Dist.
He might as well have been the only other living being on a deserted island]
Excuse me, you wouldn't happen to know if they have any local archives here or anything would you?
Re: A
Date: 2011-04-10 10:33 pm (UTC)Oh, if only it were that easy. No, I'm afraid they keep all the real information well-hidden, although if you'd like gardening tips or pictures of cars I think I can do something for you.
[He gestures to himself.]
Dist. And you are?
Re: A
Date: 2011-04-11 12:34 am (UTC)I really should have seen that coming, huh? Not even past newspaper clippings or anything?
[And he nods]
Abel...
[Dist was it-]
Oh! You're the one with the letters, right? I heard you on the phone earlier...

I could... try, I guess. But that seems too easy for this stupid town.
